RWA Federation for special "pollution control" fund: Hindustan Times


Delhi requests a special Pollution Control Budget this time

Kind Attn.: Finance Minister Mr. Arun Jaitley

Subject: Delhi requests a special Pollution Control Budget this time

Dear Sir,

Notification Dated 12th January 2017, about Delhi, in the Gazette of India, on Page number 7/24 clearly says,”As air quality analysis shows that most of the days during winter, between October 15 and February 15, fall in the AQI categories of Very Poor and Severe, it is appropriate to implement the measures that have been proposed for the AQI categories of Severe and Very Poor all through the winter, to prevent occurrence of severe or emergency situations”.

The situation is not good even for the rest of the period. WHO says, that over 30,000 persons are killed every year due to pollution in DELHI & NCR. Chicago University study says residents of Delhi & NCR are losing up to 6 to 9 years of their life due to pollution. CSE says that every third child has the Lungs problem in Delhi. UNICEF says that pollution in Delhi is badly affecting the brain of our children. Even our pollution standards are not compatible with the WHO norms.

Sir, those EMPOWERED in Delhi are busy in the Blame game and YOU ARE THE ONLY HOPE. Therefore, the RWAs, Activists as well as the residents, without any empowerment, request as below:

Sir, Delhi needs your SPECIAL ATTENTION, a special Fund, to save it from the clutches of Pollution. Delhi needs a specific, separate and a special Pollution Control Budget this time, to convert it into a Green City.

It requires money to decongest the roads, to remove the Encroachments,  to improve & develop new Parking lots, to make a check on the number of polluting vehicles, to install latest Air Quality monitoring systems, to install modern traffic lighting, to manage the Landfill sites, to remove the Pot holes, to mechanically clean the roads, to stop the Water Logging, to clean the river Yamuna, to launch plantation drives, to promote Solar Energy, as well to improve the Health facilities to save the residents from the Brain Stroke, Heart Attacks, Cancer & other Respiratory problems, due to the bad affects of Pollution.

We the RWAs, Activists & the residents of Delhi will be thankful to you if you could consider this very specific & very serious REQUEST to check & control the Pollution in Delhi & NCR.

Sir, Looking forward to your Budget Speech, with a hope for the City, that is not only the National Capital but also known as the MINI INDIA.

With best regards,

Formation of new RWAs by Delhi Government ?















Dainik Bhaskar: It's strange! While the existing RWAs of Delhi don't get any response from the CM, while CM has not called any RWAs meet in the last 3 years, while RWAs of Delhi are feeling neglected & ignored by the CM, how he has asked for the formation of New RWAs? How can all the existing RWAs of Delhi be treated as defunct? Don't you think that there is something fishy? 

My issue is that what problem they have with the existing RWAs? why no communication with the existing RWAs? How they can treat all the existing RWAs as defunct? If the election is an issue, they can ask the RWAs to do it in 30 days and submit new list of office bearers. how they can ignore the existing RWAs? How they are trying to officially convert the apolitical bodies into the political ones?

Please revert. Thanks. B S Vohra

Apolitical RWAs Vs. the Political RWAs of Delhi ?

We have the confirmed news that our Delhi Government has asked for the names of 7 persons from each ward for making the new RWAs. But we just can not understand that why they are ignoring the earlier Registered RWAs of Delhi that are working for the city for the last so many years?

We just can not understand that while we, the existing RWAs of Delhi, do not get any reply to our Emails from the CM's office and we do not get any time to meet him, how & why they are forming new RWAs in this city?

हैरानगी इस बात की भी है कि जिन RWAs के साथ, आप पार्टी के नेता और वर्तमान CM ने बड़े बड़े वायदे किए थे, आख़िर उन RWAs से दिल्ली सरकार को परेशानी क्या है?  
क्या परेशानी का सबब सिर्फ़ इतना है कि दिल्ली की सेवा मे जुटी ये निष्काम और निष्पक्ष RWAs, किसी व्यक्ति या किसी पार्टी विशेष की चमचागिरी ना करते हुए, ग़लत को ग़लत कहने का हौसला रखती हैं?

Does it mean that they do not like the RWAs that are the CRITICS and want to add their own cadres to form their own RWAs, to get the ADVANTAGE in the next elections?

It's really sad and shocking that APOLITICAL bodies are being converted into the Political outfits by our state Government. But one thing is sure that we will strongly oppose any such move.

मोहल्ला सभा के बाद अब सरकारी RWAs ?

सुनने मे आया है कि दिल्ली सरकार ने अपने सभी MLAs से हर वॉर्ड से 7 लोगों के नाम माँगे हैं, आधार कार्ड के साथ, ताकि उनको लेकर नई RWAs बनाई जा सकें, और जो काम, मोहल्ला सभा ना बनने के कारण नही हो पाए हैं, उनको अंजाम तक लाया जाए, क्योंकि चुनाव अब सिर्फ़ 2 साल ही दूर हैं. 

अगर आप मे से किसी के पास भी इस बारे मे कोई जानकारी है तो हमारे साथ तुरंत शेयर करें. अगर इस तरह से अपने कॅडर्स को लेकर नई RWA बनवाकर उनको तरजीह दी जाती है तो यह पिछले 20 सालों से भी ज़्यादा समय से काम करने वाली RWAs के साथ ना इंसाफी होगी. 

हैरानगी इस बात की भी है कि जिन RWAs के साथ, आप पार्टी के नेता और वर्तमान CM ने बड़े बड़े वायदे किए थे, आख़िर उन RWAs से दिल्ली सरकार को परेशानी क्या है, और जीतने के बाद, क्यों दिल्ली के CM उन निष्काम और निष्पक्ष RWAs से मिलने से भी कुरेज करते हैं?

क्या परेशानी का सबब सिर्फ़ इतना है कि दिल्ली की सेवा मे जुटी ये निष्काम और निष्पक्ष RWAs, किसी व्यक्ति या किसी पार्टी विशेष की चमचागिरी ना करते हुए, ग़लत को ग़लत कहने का हौसला रखती हैं?

खैर, मंशा चाहे जो भी हो, दिल्ली की RWAs अपनी आवाज़ उठाने मे कोई भी कसर नही छोड़ेंगी और अगर दिल्ली सरकार के किसी ऐसे कदम की ठोस जानकारी मिलती है, तो उसका डट कर विरोध भी करेंगी.

MTAs / RWAs : Do you require an Outdoor Air Purifying Equipment absolutely Free for your Society ?

All of us have seen the worst few days of Smog & Pollution in Delhi. The levels of PM 10, as well as PM 2.5, were many times more than the prescribed norms. These PM 10, as well as PM 2.5, are very harmful to everyone, especially the Children & Elderly persons.

The Director of AIIMS has stated a few days ago, that almost 25000 - 30000 persons are killed every year, by the effects of Pollutants, in Delhi & NCR, though its an estimate as it is the silent killer. The Chicago University has mentioned in one of its studies, that the residents of Delhi & NCR are losing up to 6 - 9 years of their life due to pollution.

Keeping in mind the above facts, a company is now offering an Outdoor Air Purifying Equipment at very nominal cost. In case you don't want to pay anything, you can get itAbsolutely Free, i.e. at No Cost to you, as in that case, it will carry an Advertisement of the Sponsoring company. The overall dimensions are height 4.5 Ft & Dia 3 Ft only.

In fact, once the cost is recovered, you will start even making a small earning out of it, without investing anything. The Electricity consumption is very little and you have to keep the Equipment at any crowded place, in any market location, at any religious place, hospital, community center etc, for the benefit of the visitors as well as to cover the Advertisement costs.

If interested, please Email us with your complete contact details, mobile number, as well the Address of the desired location for the feasibility analysis and it will be forwarded to the manufacturers of the equipment for further action. RWAs/MTAs/NGOs may plan for such equipment for their localities/markets for making the GREEN ZONE for the benefit of residents/visitors.
